thanx David it was a big help.--Previous Message--: A list of tenrec species is available at : http://www.nmnh.si.edu/cgi-bin/wdb/msw/children/query/5007 : . : The data is from the 1993 edition of : "Mammal Species of the World" and : therefore a little outdated. New species : have been discovered since then and some of : the taxonomy has been revised. For : references to the changes have a look at the : Bibliography of the Tenrecidae at : http://www.tenrec.org/bibliall.htm . : There is still some debate about the total : number of known species, but it is probably : between 24 and 30. I will try to add an : updated list of all the species to the : website as soon as possible. : :
